RCMP FILE: 2018-952

On January 6th a woman parked a black 2017 Ford F150 pickup in the parking lot at George Elliott School on Bottom Wood Lake Road in Lake Country between 930 a.m. and 12:20 p.m. A suspect broke the left rear window to reach a purse that had unfortunately been left on the seat, and was also able to leave with the truck. The truck was recovered nearby the next day, but the thief used one of the credit cards to withdraw cash at a local bank. He attempted at another Lake Country bank but was unsuccessful. Lake Country RCMP would like to identify this person of interest for the fraud.
